What are your favorite father/daughter songs?

Let me say this first: I can only guess how irritating it must be for dads to have just a "corner" but the mommies can come in and talk too. I told myself I would never do it, but here I am, doing just so.

But hey, I figured this would be the best board to come to and ask my question.

Dads, what are your favorite father/daughter songs?

Our baby is due April 13th, but our anniversary is March 20th, and I would really like to make him a mix tape of great songs that he can listen to, that have to do with fathers and daughters. Personally, my two favorite ones already are John Mayer's "Daughters" and Darius Rucker's "It Won't Be Like This For Long", but I need more than that! Any suggestions?

Thank you guys :)

I can't believe that no one has mentioned "Isn't She Lovely" by Stevie Wonder. It was the song that he wrote about the day his daughter was born. I'm going to sing this to my daughter when she's born... Here are the lyrics:

Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderfulIsn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
through us he's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love

Isn't she lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is Aisha
The meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love

Another good Stevie Wonder song is "You Are The Sunshine of My Life." My father and I danced to "Unfogettable" (the Nat King and Natalie Cole version) at my wedding, and it is very fitting for a daddy to his little girl.
